Wednesday Worlds of Wonder WALKING DEAD "Beginning of the End" Conclusion

When Last We Left the Former Law-Enforcement Officer Battling Zombies in a Post-Apocalyptic World...

...no!
Not that LEO..

...this LEO!
Mortally-wounded Sgt Joe Barker faces off with zombie leader (Yes, the zombies in this universe have a leader!) Jak...

The final scene of the final issue of Aircel's Walking Dead (#4 in 1990) truly defines "apocalyptic" as everyone (live and undead) is now kaput!
There are two more short tales involving different groups of characters than the main series.
You'll see them over the next few weeks.
Created by writer/artist Jim Somerville and published by Malibu/Aircel in 1989, it was vastly-different from the 2003-present graphic novel series created by writer Robert Kirkman, and artists Tony Moore & Charles Adlard..
For collectors, there's good news and bad news...
Good news: There's only a four-issue mini series and a one-shot Special to collect!
Bad news: Because it didn't sell well (and has never been reprinted), it's HTF (hard to find) and expensive!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder WALKING DEAD "Beginning of the End" Part 1

It's a world where a former law enforcement officer leads a ragtag group of survivors against an unending zombie horde...

...no, no, not that Walking Dead!
This Walking Dead...

...featuring dead who not only walk, they talk (incessantly), think, and use automatic weapons!
And in this universe, that might just be enough to destroy the living...
You Can Witness the Fearsome Finale...
Next Wednesday!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder SPACE ACE "Yo, Bro!" Part 2

...I'll just add you'll discover why we titled this untitled tale as we did!
(It does make sense!
You'll see!)
See?
We told you the title made sense!
This was the first issue of a six-issue mini-series.
Unfortunately, publisher CrossGen went out of business after the third issue was published, leaving the story unfinished...in America!
With all six issues written and illustrated, first the series' Italian publisher Edizione Italy and then Canadian publisher Arcana eventually ran the entire storyline some years later!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder SPACE ACE "Yo, Bro!" Part 1

This particular comic series was a sequel to a video game and its' short-lived TV series...
...continuing the plotline established in both!
To Be Continued...
Next Wednesday
Written by Robert (Walking Dead) Kirkman and illustrated by Paulo Borges, this opening chapter from CrossGen's Don Bluth Presents Space Ace #1(2003) shows a nice balance between comedy and drama.
CrossGen published almost 70 titles between 2000 and 2004.
Besides creator-owned properties, the company also did a number of licensed projects like this, including Bluth's other big video game Dragon's LairJohn Carpenter's Snake Plisskin, and Masters of the Universe!
